Dr. Brain designed by Robotics Industries (Jim Freckingham) is the first vinyl project from the newly formed UK-based Raje Toys founded by Richard Emms, Adam Boreham, Jim Freckingham and Eddie Deighton.  The concept for the upcoming 7.5” vinyl figure was first seen in one of Jim’s custom Munnys.   It’s a little hard to tell in the above render, but the figure will have a translucent clear tank containing the ever-important-brain.  The figure is expected to drop in May for $59.95 and will be available in two colorways – standard (450 pcs) and chase (50 pcs).

Dr. Brain is the first figure to use Raje’s platform-ish body concept.  The ‘body’ will serve as the basis or starting point for several upcoming artist projects.  Some projects including Doktor A’s Gyroscopic Non-Ornamental Mechanised Excavator (GNOME) will swap out some of the standard parts in lieu of design-specific ones.  Very cool idea which balances artistic and business concerns.

Here’s a hearty welcome to Raje Toys.  We’re looking forward to their upcoming lineup.
